Art photography is a great idea to enhance your home. Not only does it add a touch of elegance and personality to walls, but it can also provide an interesting conversation space for guests.
Here are 10 ideas to enhance your home with photography:
- Choose a photography style that fits your home. There are many options to choose from, from black and white photography to color images, landscape photography to architectural photos.
2. Choose the right size for the image. If you have large walls, a large photograph can make all the difference. If you have a smaller space, however, a series of smaller images may work better; images with the same theme and the same size can be arranged harmoniously around a slightly larger one.
3. Use a frame to complete the look of the image. A well-chosen frame can make the difference between an image that seems incomplete and a well-curated one.
4. Choose a photo theme that fits the room. For example, if you have a room with nature-themed décor, photographs of animals or natural landscapes might work well.
5. Use photography to create a focal point in the room. If you have a blank wall that seems lacking in personality, a large fine art photograph can become the focal point of the room.
6. Use photography to create a theme in the room. For example, you could choose several travel photographs for a room dedicated to travellers.
7. Use photography to create an atmosphere in the room. For example, a series of black and white photographs can create an elegant and sophisticated atmosphere.
8. Choose the right location for the image. Instead of hanging the picture in the center of the wall, try hanging it slightly off in an unconventional position or place it directly on the floor against a wall.
9. Choose photographs of different sizes and shapes, arranged non-aligned with each other and alternating horizontal and vertical cuts to create a playful and interesting atmosphere.
10. Don’t be afraid to experiment with fine art photography. If you have a specific vision in mind, try finding a photographer who can create custom images for your home.
In summary, art photography is a classic but never trivial idea to enhance your home. Choose a photography style that is suitable for the room, at the right size, use a frame to complete the look, choose a photographic theme to match the room and use photography to create a focal point, playing with different sizes and shapes of the images. Don’t be afraid to experiment. With these ideas, your home can become a true work of art.
